Love’s Perfect Match Chapter 309


    “I know your skills, Arthur. It’s not bad, but youg behind me a lot. You’re not the only one who can


    cure her.” Elspeth didn’t believe Arthur one bit. If he was the only one who could heal her, then what


    would that make all the other doctors in the world? Useless?“Hey, I can’t do anything if you don’t


    believe me, but I’m indeed the only one who knows how to treat her at the moment.” Arthur smiled.

    “There’s a reason your grandfather asked me to help out.”Elspeth’s heart sank. She had to say he had


    a point.“However, the pacing of the treatment is under my control. I decide when she gets better, if


    ever.” Arthur approached Elspeth, looking down at her. He then said with a smug smile, “Get on my bad


    side, and I might just slip during the treatment.”Elspeth crossed her arms. Proudly, she said, “You fail


    my mother, and you’ll have the whole Joneson Family after you, not just me. Don’t even try to threaten


    me.”Arthur wasn’t intimidated by that threat. Instead, heughed maniacally. “You think I care? You


    think I care after all you and Callum did to me?”“What about Emma, then? Don’t you like her


    anymore?”The mention of Emma broke something in Arthur. “You don’t deserve to say her


    name.”Elspeth snickered. “Simp. You do her every bidding even though she doesn’t like you, and for


    what? Nothing. Nothing at all.”Infuriated and livid, Arthur took a step forward and grabbed Elspeth by


    her neck. “I said, you don’t deserve to say her name. nder her once more and I will wipe you off the


    face of the earth.”Suffocating, Elspeth coughed and sputtered, her face red. Arthur let her go right


    away. He was still at the Joneson Residence and hurting Elspeth might mean trouble. Elspeth fell to the


    ground.“You go against Emma again, and I wille after you.”He looked at Elspeth, whose clothes


    were disheveled, from head to toe, and then he froze. “W-Why do you have that pear blossom mark on


    your chest?”“Are you mad?” Elspeth red at Arthur angrily. She quickly straightened her clothes and


    was about to stand up, but then Arthur hunkered down and tore her cor open to have a closer look at


    the birthmark. When Elspeth realized what he was doing, she pped him. “Are you crazy, Arthur?”Yet,


    the p didn’t make Arthur snap out of it. He looked at the angry Elspeth, and with a trembling voice,


    he said, “W-Were you in Damoria eight years ago?”Elspeth thought he was insulting her, but then she


    realized he was serious, and her fury subsided. “What does that have to do with you?” “Just tell me!”


    Arthur seemed to be in a hurry, and he was agitated.“Yes.” Elspeth nodded. “I was going to go abroad,


    and Damoria was one of my stops…”“Did you save a chubby boy under an old pagoda tree in rural


    Damoria, then?”That was a specific question. Elspeth had to wrack her brain to dig up that memory.


    She was about fifteen then, and she was on a long trip from Langford to Damoria. Back then, she could


    be considered a decent fighter, though she looked frail. She was an introvert at school and a top


    student, which made her the target of bullying. The headmaster’s daughter pulled a few strings and got


    her expelled. Left with no choice, she took some money out of her father’s inheritance to study


    abroad.She had to change trains at the Damoria-Langford border, and it was there she noticed a young


    man getting ganged up on. He was chubby, but he was cute. Since Elspeth was a victim of bullying


    herself, the sight made her furious. Fortunately, there weren’t a lot of boys among the group of bullies.


    Most of them were just high-school girls trying to be edgy. Elspeth easily kicked one of the boys down,


    then she stood in front of the chubby to protect him. “Anyone who wants to bully him must get past


    me.”The boy who got kicked groaned in pain, and the other bullies quickly ran off. Some of the timid


    girls even burst into tears.“Youe after him again, and I’ll whoop your sorry butts.”That scared the


    bullies. They didn’t think a girl younger than they were could be so strong, and she had a small frame


    too. They fled at once lest the girl tried to hit them. Once the bullies were gone, young Elspeth turned to


    the chubby boy. “They should stay away from you for a while now.”The boy sat up and started crying,


    and he thanked Elspeth at the same time.Elspeth noticed the wounds on his face, and she felt sorry for


    him. “They’re just trying to be edgy. If theye after you again, tell your parents and scare them off.


    That should help with your case.” After that, Elspeth’s ride was about to arrive, so she hopped onto the


    train, leaving the boy behind.Elspeth looked at Arthur and noticed the scar on his forehead. “So, what


    are you trying to say? You were that boy who got bullied?” Arthur stood there without a word while


    Elspeth chuckled. “Really?”It was unbelievable, but Arthur’s reaction, or ack thereof, told her what


    she needed to know. She couldn’t imagine the chubby, crying kid had grown into a handsome man like


    Arthur, though his personality was rotten. Wonder if that’s because of the bullying. She felt sorry for him


    for some reason. Such a pity.A long, long timeter, Arthur finally snapped out of it. “Impossible.


    There’s no way it was you!” That was Emma. Emma saved me! Not Elspeth. No… No way!
